Answer:
They came up with the term “radioactivity.”
They conducted experiments with uranium-containing minerals and pure uranium.
They discovered two new radioactive elements.
Explanation:
As we know that the radioactivity is discovered by Marie and Curie and as per the experimental verification of the theory given by them we can say that rate of decay of a radioactive sample is directly proportional to the number of the radioactive same present at that time.
So it is given as
so here they also discovered two new radioactive substance apart from all the experiments related to the Uranium

The electric field at one corner of a square is 1614217 N/C.
Explanation:
The distance between x and y direction diagonals.
As per the given details the distance between diagonals is calculated as
0.5² + 0.5² = c² => c = 0.707 m
Charge to the right: In x direction
In order to find the electric charge towards x direction
we use e = kq/r² formula
As 'k' is coulomb's constant it's value is 9 x N m²/C²
e = (9 x )(250 x
) / (0.5)²
e = 9 x N/C
Charge diagonal:
e = kq/r²
e = [(9 x )(250 x
) / (0.707)²] cos 45
e = 225000√2 N/C
X direction sum = 1218198 N/C.
Similarly as shown in x direction the charge is same for y direction also
Charge below: For y direction
e = kq/r²
e = (9 x )(250 x
) / (0.5)²
e = 9 x N/C
Charge diagonal:
e = kq/r²
e = [(9 x )(250 x
) / (0.5)²] sin 45
e = 159099 N/C
Y direction sum = 1059099 N/C
Resultant electric field strength:
1218198 ² + 1059099² = e²
e = 1614217 N/C [45 degrees below the horizontal]
